HP laptop updates and graphics issues.
I recently received this laptop from a friend, it had not been turned on since 2010.
It is an Hp HDX premium series laptop
It has 4gb ram, 2 main hard drives, intel centrino 2, and its windows vista.
It was windows vista home edition, it would not reset through recovery, so I used my vista business edition restore disk.
When I started up it worked well enough, then it did automatic windows updates.
It needed 103 of them.
I let it go and do updates. Went fine. I started up the laptop after it was done, and when it turned on, after I sign in, the screen freezes and has colorful lines through it, then crashes.
It has nvidia geforce 9600m gt graphics card, however when I update the drivers, it crashes on the screen again.
I can't watch movies on the laptop because I don't have proper drivers.
I can't play games, because I don't have proper drivers.
This is what I get when I put in cmd ipconfig/all
